Re: COMP_zlibd don't return a valid method

[prakash babu]

Hello Ignacio,

 

                       I tried the program you attached and it seems to work fine .

 

#include <openssl/comp.h>
#include <openssl/obj_mac.h>
int main()
{
COMP_METHOD *comp_method;
comp_method = COMP_zlib();
if(comp_method != NULL)
        {
                printf("compression name: %s\n", (comp_method->name !=
NULL? comp_method->name:""));
                if (comp_method->type != NID_undef)
                        SSL_COMP_add_compression_method(1, comp_method);
                else
                        printf("Compression not suported");

                exit(1);
        }
}

# cc test2.c -lcrypto -lssl
# ./a.out
compression name: zlib compression

 

Can you give me more details such as the platform, compilation steps etc ?

 

Thanks,

Prakash

Hello,

first of all, sorry by my english...

The problem is,
i have started to develop a simple application that uses SSL with
compression, but when i try to add the zlib compression method to my
server it is imposible

the code that i use is:

comp_method = COMP_zlib();

if(comp_method != NULL)
{
printf("compression name: %s\n", (comp_method->name !=
NULL? comp_method->name:""));
if (comp_method->type != NID_undef)
SSL_COMP_add_compression_method(COMP_ZLIB, comp_method);
else
warning2("Compression not suported");

exit(1);
}

obiuosly, the output is "Compression not suported"...

i recompiled my openSSL library with zlib support and nothing...
my openssl version is 0.9.8

thank all!
